Raising a kid

I now teach in an art museum and one of the greatest things is to ask a kid what they think (or even more radically what they feel) about one of the pieces and see them realize that whatever they think and say will be valued and discussed. And Ive seen kids considering really challenging art, interpreting circles around amazed adults. I like my job.

See, it just seems so wrong that these are radical ideas. We're raising generation after generation of passive thinkers who just accept what they're told at face value.
